- "thou art Peter", Matt 16:18. There is also a pun on peatrick as Peter-Rock. In Greek 'petros' means 'Peter' and 'Rock', and Jesus puns on the ambiguity when he says "Thou art Peter (petros), and upon this rock (petros) I will build my church."
- cf. scad
- St. Patrick's Purgatory contained a peat fire
cf. voise from afar (...) Tu es Petrus (FW 407)
